THE CHOLERA SHIPS.
More Coming from the Mediterranean
The Alesia and Britannia.

New IoRK, Nov. 3.-President Bayles,
of the board of health, wrote today in rela-
ton to the cholera ships to Mayor Hewitt,
as to the adyisabilty of requesting the ma
tional government to send the vessels back.
lie says that 80 far as the vessels now in
port are concerned, there seems to be no
concern for an appeal by the mayor to the
federal government TO order their re-
moval. The Alesia has already sailed,
and the Britannia is at present said to be
free from disease. SIN the case of the
Burgandia, which, understand, is near
ing this port with full cargo and passen-
ger list from infected Mediterranean ports,
il is probably too late for any effective ac-
ton whatever, or no cholera may be found
on board.
In the latter case Mr.. Bayles says it
would be an act Of inhumanity to compel
the return OF her passengers, rs they might
die on the return trip and the horrors of
such voyage can be imagined but scarce
ly described.
President Bayles adds: ~ would re-
spectfully urge the desirability Of discour-
aging such immigration, and the board OF
health would cordially second any effort
you may bc pleased to make to that end.
II the federal government can in any way
interfere 10 check immigration from ports
infected with onkgious diseases, il should
be asked to do 50.
FACTS ABOUT THE ALEsIA.
Health Officer VIM. NJ. Smith gives the
following summary of facts in regard to
cholera among the passengers Of the steam
ers Alcsia and Britannia: "1hc Alesia had
six deaths from cholera on the voyage,
four passengers and two OF the crew. There
have been in all among the Alesia's pas.
sengers thirty.tive cases Of cholera, nine
teen OF which proved fatal. There have
been two deaths from other causes. On
the Britannia there have been only foul
cases OF cholera since her arrival" DIR
Smith adds 1.-The health officer and tho
commissioners OF quarantine have done
and are doing everything possible for til,
safety of the public They have succeeded
so far, and will succeed in confirming thi'
outbreak Of cholera TO the limits OF quaran
tine, in preventing the disease from bcin.

THE IRISH QUESTION.
Honor Bright" A Believer in Home Rule
but also in Justice
To the Editor of the Free Press

To the Editor of the Free Press;
Dear Sir Replying to your correspond
ent IS" in this mornings paper, allow me
to say that his assertion that my former
letter citing the conditions contained in
the statutory leases in Ireland being cam
paign phamr hlet matter is not true.
Will hand you in the course of week or
so copies of leases for his inspection con-
tanning the fac smile clauses, printed on
Irish paper, that were signed by Irish ten
ants and Home Rulers at that Though a
believer in Home Rule for Ireland, am
still a believer in justice. Ireland has
right to govern herself she will be more
contented, any way-even if she can't do
it any better than now. The idea that
some profess that the landlords have no
rights, is most silly they own the lands,
and it seems most Justif1able to any man
that they should manage them as they
think best. They must be paid for their
estates and the estates must be disposed
of in as Just and fair way as the advo-
Gates of justice for the tenants demand
for themselves. Landlords are citizens
as we'll as their tenants, and the govern
ment must do justice to all. Why not
that they can accomplish their purpose by
insulting the British government and its
rulers, as O'Brien in Canada has been do
ing and many in different parts of this
country, they will find it gigantic under
taking.
AS correspondent of another paper in
Canada pointed out the inconsistency
of the Canadian lawmakers in passing
votes of admonition to the British Houses
of Parliament not TO pass the coercion bill,
whereas they themselves were the makers
of the Canadian statutory leases which
contain the provisions that if lessor is
not paid his rent in full after 10 days in
arrears the lessor can eject the tenant
after Selling and selling the goods and
chattles of the lessee to recover the rent
due with costs. That is If you owe $500 or
rent and paid it all but 81 this could hap
pen. Consistency is a jewel, apd people
who live in glass houses should not throw
stones. Thanking you, Mr.. Editor, for
your kindness and indulgence, and prom
Using you this will be the last, am, etc,
HONOR BRIGHT.
